Who is more stupid?

On my way from school today I'm driving behind a 7thgen Si and a new Cobra on a 2 lane street. Si is in the left lane and Cobra is in the right lane and I'm behind the Si. We come to a redlight....... light turns green and both dudes punch it.

After a few seconds the Cobra started pulling away so quick it looked like the Si hit the breaks when in fact he was flooring it cuz he was pulling away from me pretty quick and I was going normal.....

So who is the bigger moron? The dude in the Si for trying to race a Cobra or the dude in the Cobra for trying to race an Si?

Deinfatly not, the stang was low, wide tires in the rear and the rear bumper said COBRA in big letters.... its really easy to tell a COBRA apart from others.

I'd agree with Si, maybe the cobra was just messing with him? or maybe he was just having fun :P

just because it says cobra on the back bumper doesnt mean its fast. i raced a few of them with my car fully loaded with 4 people. and put cars on them. thats when i ran low 14's. but since the si is the under dawg, he tryed to attack the alpha male. dont know why you would call that stupidity, its the rule of life. hes just trying to get higher on the food chain but got badly denied....
no stupidity on either part in my view..

No, cant agree with you there. If you race a Cobra in a stock Si then you are stupid because the dude in the Si should of known it would of been a waste of energy..... he is stupid 1)because he didnt know it was a Cobra and raced it OR 2)he thinks a stock Si is a fast straight line car

If I was in my Civic and asked if you wanted to race me on foot and you agreed I wouldnt think you're trying to get higher in a food chain..... I would just think that you're an idiot much like the Si driver.

The Cobra dude is also a moron cuz he decided to waste gas on a stock Si.

If you were running 14's, and your car had 4 people in it, and you raced Cobras and won them, then those Corbras did not know you were racing.

I think the Cobra owner is because if he/she already has a fast car, he/she wouldn't have to show it off at a stoplight when a 4 cylinder car is next to him/her.

my old teamate ran a 12.9 with a 2.4 60' in his stock 03 cobra.

now granted not ALL cobras are 12 second cars. but their were N/A models made that were 14 second cars with your average driver. dunno about putting car lengths on them though lol especially in another 14 second car.
